Catherine Graindorge

Catherine Graindorge is a Brussels-based violinist, violist , composer and actress. Over the years, she has built her craft by mixing disciplines, creating theater performances as a writer and actor, composing music for her own shows and for others.

She worked with international artists such as Nick Cave, Warren Ellis, Mark Lanegan, Debbie Harry (The Jeffrey Lee Pierce sessions project), and Pascal Humbert (16Horsepower). Her latest album, Eldorado on tac:tyl (Glitterbeat), was released in October 2021 and produced by John Parish (PJ Harvey). In September 2022 she released a 4-track EP with Iggy Pop.

Catherine’s music is a kind of psychedelic soundtrack: an immersive, intense and drone-like soundscape charged with underlying tension that needs to explode, just like a volcano on the brink of eruption.
